Introduction

The Atlona AT-OPUS-RX41 is a 4×1 switcher and receiver for 4K high dynamic range (HDR) formats. It features three HDMI inputs, plus an HDBaseT input for receiving video, embedded audio, control signals, power, and Ethernet over distances of up to 330 feet (100 meters). Supporting 4K/UHD @ 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling, as well as HDMI data rates up to 18 Gbps, the OPUS-RX41 is the perfect complement to an Atlona Opus™ Series matrix switcher in whole-house AV applications allowing display of 4K HDR content from either the matrix or one of the connected local sources.

The OPUS-RX41 includes a number of key features to help simplify residential deployments. Extension of CEC, IR, and RS-232 signals over HDBaseT allows a control system connected to the OPUS-RX41 to select inputs on the matrix or control its sources, and allows the matrix to control the local room display. A handheld IR remote control is included for power and input selection on the OPUS-RX41. Advanced HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) routes audio from a smart TV to both the local TOSLINK connection as well as HDBaseT. EDID management, selectable 4K to 1080p downscaling, and HDCP 2.2 support with selectable down-conversion to HDCP 1.4 ensures compatibility with legacy displays. Remote power allows the device to be powered by an Opus matrix switcher, for installation flexibility at a display or projector.

IP Configuration

The AT-OPUS-RX41 is shipped with DHCP enabled. Once connected to a network, the DHCP server (if available), will automatically assign an IP address to the unit. Use an IP scanner, along with the MAC address on the back of the unit, to identify both the unit and its IP address on the network. If a static IP address is desired, the unit can be switched to static IP mode. Use one of the following procedures to switch between DHCP and static IP mode. The default static IP address of the AT-OPUS-RX41 is 192.168.1.254.

If the AT-OPUS-RX41 is unable to detect a DHCP server within 15 seconds, then the unit will set all IP settings to zero.

Setting the IP Mode

  1. Make sure the AT-OPUS-RX41 is powered.
  2. Connect an Ethernet cable between the LAN port of the AT-OPUS-RX41 and the Local Area Network (LAN).

Refer to the next page for more information on scaling.

Notes on Scaling

The following section provides important information about how the AT-OPUS-RX41 processes 4K (UHD) video signals.

• The HDMI OUTPUT port supports up to 4K @ 60 Hz, 12-bit, with HDR.
- If the source is 4K, and the HDMI OUTPUT port is connected to a 1080p (not 4K-capable) display, then the output will be down-scaled as follows:

Input Output

4K @ 24 Hz 1080p @ 24 Hz
4K @ 30 Hz 1080p @ 30 Hz
4K @ 60 Hz, 4:2:0 1080p @ 60 Hz, YUV/RGB 4:4:4
  • HDR / Dolby Vision / HLG formats cannot be down-scaled to 1080p. If the source content has HDR, then the color saturation on the video output my appear "washed out".
  • The internal scaler will be bypassed if the connected display supports the resolution and timing information from the source device.

HDCP Settings

Normally, if a source is transmitting HDCP content to a display that is not HDCP-compatible, then the resulting image on the display will result in "snow", image flickering, or no picture.

For example, in the illustration below, a laptop source is connected to the AT-OPUS-RX41. A non-compliant display is connected to the AT-OPUS-RX41 using an HDMI cable.

Atlona AT-OPUS-RX41 - HDCP Settings - 1

flowchart
graph LR
    A["Non-Compliant Display"] -->|USB| B["AT-OPUS-RX41"]
    B -->|H2048| C["Laptop"]

By default, the laptop may transmit HDCP content. However, when connected to a display that does not support HDCP, the laptop must be instructed to send non-HDCP content, in order for the content to be displayed.

  1. Open the desired web browser and enter the IP address of the AT-OPUS-RX41.

Using the Audio Return Channel (ARC)

The Audio Return Channel (ARC) allows audio to be sent upstream, from the display device, to the AT-OPUS-RX41 over an HDMI cable. The audio can then be output over the OPTICAL port or sent over HDBaseT, back to the matrix. This technique can be used to send audio from a Smart TV, in case the content originator is the TV, to an A/V receiver, providing a multichannel audio experience. The advantage of ARC is that no additional audio cables are required to be connected between the display and the audio output device.

The illustration below, shows an example of how the Audio Return Channel works. The dark green lines identify the audio coming from the display. The instructions on the following page will reference the diagram below.

Atlona AT-OPUS-RX41 - Using the Audio Return Channel (ARC) - 1

NOTE: Some displays limit ARC to 2-channel audio. Refer to the documentation that came with your display for more information. When ARC is enabled, the HDMI inputs will be disabled. To reactivate the HDMI inputs, ARC must be disabled. Refer to Switching between ARC and HDMI inputs (page 28) for more information.

If a new source is connected, the AT-OPUS-RX41 will automatically switch to that input. The default setting is ON.

HDCP Settings

Sets the HDCP reporting mode of the specified HDMI port: Input 1 = INPUT 1 (HDBaseT), Input 2 = INPUT 2, Input 3 = INPUT 3, Input 4 = INPUT 4. Some devices will transmit HDCP content if an HDCP-compliant display/sink is detected. Setting this value to OFF, will instruct the source to send non-HDCP content (if possible) to non-HDCP display and/or sink devices. Note that setting this value to OFF will not decrypt HDCP content.

Setting Description
ON HDCP content is always transmitted by the source
OFF Instructs the source to send non-HDCP content, if possible
